The Medfield Lions Club annual Christmas Tree Sale is coming once again to Main Street. The sale, which runs from November 27th through December 18th, has become the club’s principal fundraiser and features freshly sheared, USDA Premium Grade Maine Balsam Fir Christmas trees.  While there are both smaller and a limited number of larger trees, most trees fall in the range of 6 ft. to 8 ft. 

The sale will be held in the parking lot at Shaw’s Plaza, near Marshalls. Hours of operation are 4 PM – 7 PM Monday and Tuesday, 4 PM – 8 PM Wednesday thru Friday, and 10 AM – 5 PM weekends.

Not only does the Lions Christmas tree sale raise money for charity, it also helps members of the community at the same time. Every year the Lions let customers direct $5 of the purchase price of their tree to the Medfield charity of their choice if they bring in a coupon (or ask for one at the tree lot) when they make their purchase. The coupon can also be found in this paper’s Thanksgiving week issue or in the school system’s Thursday packets throughout the month of December. This year customers will have the option of directing $5 to either the Medfield Food Cupboard or the Medfield Animal Shelter. 

Another way the Lions Christmas tree sale helps out in the community is with the donation of  approximately twenty trees a year to the Medfield Food Cupboard, which distributes the trees to their needy clients.

As you get ready to purchase your holiday tree this year, please consider visiting the Medfield Lions Club Christmas tree sale. Every penny of profit from your purchase will go to charity, and you’ll be helping out members of the community at the same time. And don’t forget you’ll feel good about your Lions Christmas Tree purchase well before you put your tree up.
